About SEMSI

About the Conference

In the rapidly changing scenario of building sector planners, architects, engineers and builders are searching for smart and energy efficient materials and technologies to adopt in future constructions that have benefits like energy efficiency, resources & water conservation, improved indoor air quality, life cycle cost reduction and durability. Therefore, to attain these objectives, application of the latest advancements in various technologies including developments in material science, use of environment friendly building materials, obtaining energy efficiency while producing such materials are of prime concern. SEMSI-2023 will provide an excellent opportunity for the speakers/delegates to discuss and share their views on the suggested themes. In addition to the contributed papers, the conference will also include keynote Lectures by experts.

Objectives of the Conference

The purpose of this conference is to bring together leading academicians, scientists, PG students and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research outcomes on all aspects of Smart Construction Materials and Technologies. It also provides an interdisciplinary platform to present and discuss the latest innovations, trends, concerns and adoption of suitable solutions for the various practical challenges encountered in the fields of Smart Construction Materials and Technologies.
